ari-49 Review of Double, Double Toil and Trouble

Double, Double Toil and Trouble (1993 TV Movie)

Olsenfans will love it, non-Olsenfans: give this movie a chance!

[10/10 · 1 January 2005]

If you're a fan of Mary-Kate and Ashley, you'll love this movie. If you're not a fan, you may think it's not such a great movie, but think twice: there's more to Double, Double, Toil and Trouble than just the Olsen Twins! The movie begins with money problems for the parents of Lynn (Ashley Olsen) and Kelly Farmer (Mary-Kate Olsen). Their only hope is a loan from old Aunt Agatha, but she's very mean. While their parents are visiting Agatha, the girls hear about witches and the moonstone. Aunt Agatha is said to be a witch who locked her twin sister, aunt Sophie, into a mirror, using the moonstone. Of course, Lynn and Kelly decide they want to find it! What's next, is a fun movie, taking place on Halloween, full of adventure for the girls, new friends and magic as well. The storyline may seem a bit childish sometimes, but in the end you'll discover that the girls are right: friends are more important than money. So, in conclusion: a movie Olsenfans will love, but non-Olsenfans should definitely give it a chance!
